Bowen Buchbinder Vilensky

I can honestly say that in complex commercial litigation matters, David demonstrates an uncanny ability to think clearly, out of the box, and he adopts a pragmatic and very cost-effective approach. This is especially the case in relation to fixed fee pricing. The other side are having the guts ripped out of them in the most cynical way by their law firm. By contrast, I have known where I stand from the beginning, and this has proven to be a much more satisfactory way of tackling complex corporate legal issues.

David is highly approachable which is important when dealing with lawyers. There are some lawyers who are so far up themselves that you hesitate to call them, but even though David is a brilliant lawyer, he is also very down to earth.

Les Buchbinder negotiated an unfair dismissal claim for me – he is very good and I would recommend him very highly. He got me an excellent deal. I thought I might have to part with a lot of money, but in the end I parted with none. He is very good to do business with – he is a quiet man who knows his stuff and very nice to have in your corner.

Kori was a passionate and committed member of the legal representing our company in a major case. She brought a lot of common sense, calm and organised assurance to the team which led to a high degree of comfort in the presentation of our defence. Kori stepped in to cover other team members when required with such an assurance that as the client we had no stress that our case progressed unabated. Kori helpfully requested anything she required in a clear and concise manner and made a stressful experience, of defending a major case, all the better as a result of her involvement.

David provided the strategic direction for our defence and pulled together a strong team to present our case. Through all of the challenges presented to us, as the case played out, he remained absolutely focussed on the direction as per the plan. The organisation and presentation of strong and unified team, I believe, had an influence on a good outcome. David’s input continues to be highly regarded and appreciated on a range of matters. He has a good balance of business common sense approach with what is the likely legal outcome from other approaches. All of which made it easier to make decisions on matters we were not accustomed to.
